2.1 Procedure

Title : Intention notice R01903 - Service and maintenance of Schneider UPS
Description : This agreement shall cover the need for Service and maintenance of Schneider UPS. The agreement shall cover pouring Norway. The Norwegian Defence Estates Agency has had challenges with implementing procurements on framework agreements for servicing of Schneider UPS for existing facilities.

Based on this, the Norwegian Defence Estates Agency will enter into a contract with Schneider for service and maintenance of the Norwegian Defence Estates Agency's Schneider UPSer. It is therefore considered that this procurement goes under: §13-4.b.3, "The Contracting Authority can hold a procurement without a competition if; b.

6. Results

Value of all contracts awarded in this notice : 25 000 000 Norwegian krone
Direct award :
Justification for direct award : The contract can be provided only by a particular economic operator because of exclusive rights, including intellectual property rights
Other justification : The main problem that the suppliers usually encounter is a lack of access to software and a lack of licences to be able to carry out service and maintenance on UPSs provided by other manufacturers. This applies to the majority of the existing installations that The Norwegian Defence Estates Agency has currently installed. It is considered that the manufacturers are their property where only those who can carry out the work and access is not granted to other manufacturers.
